In 1917, Chernov intended to introduce a revolutionary land law proposal for the Constituent Assembly. As a corollary measure, he argued for a proposal to suspend all transactions on land backdated to 1 March 1917. Accordingly, Chernov strongly argued for the rapid convocation of the Constituent Assembly to be convened in late September or early October. During July Crisis, he got cabinet approval for his schedule. Chernov's plan was thwarted by the Kadets who in the Second Coalition successfully demanded the prolongation by eight weeks of the election and the convocation of the Assembly. Chernov's political position was also weakened by the disintegration within the SR party that during the summer of 1917, divided the party into three factions. The Kornilov episode ended Chernov's ministerial career. In Bolshevik Russia, Chernov was a still a credible alternative to Lenin. Chernov got majority in the Second Congress of the Peasant Soviet between 26 November and 2 December. The SR party also received majority in the elections to the Constituent Assembly. In January 5, 1918, Chernov introduced the first ten paragraphs of the SR land law in the only session of the Assembly; the entire law proposal only emerged from the archives after the dissolution of the USSR.

1917 年的维克多·切尔诺夫：重新评估

1917 年，切尔诺夫打算向制宪议会提出一项革命性的土地法提案。作为一项必然措施，他主张暂停所有可追溯到 1917 年 3 月 1 日的土地交易。因此，切尔诺夫强烈主张在 9 月底或 10 月初迅速召开制宪会议。在七月危机期间，他的日程安排得到了内阁的批准。切尔诺夫的计划被立宪民主党挫败，后者在第二次联盟中成功地要求将选举和议会的召开时间延长八周。切尔诺夫的政治地位也因 1917 年夏天 SR 党内部的解体而被削弱，该党将党分为三个派别。科尔尼洛夫事件结束了切尔诺夫的部长生涯。在布尔什维克俄罗斯，切尔诺夫仍然是列宁的可靠替代者。11 月 26 日至 12 月 2 日，切尔诺夫在第二次农民苏维埃代表大会上获得多数席位。社会革命党也在制宪议会选举中获得多数席位。1918 年 1 月 5 日，切尔诺夫在议会唯一的会议上介绍了 SR 土地法的前十段；整个法律提案仅在苏联解体后才从档案中出现。
